Penny Jordan. One Night With the Sheikh. New York: Harlequin, 2003.
Mariella Sutton travels to exotic Zuran when she is commissioned
by the country's royal family to paint a portrait of their horses. She
brings along her baby niece, Fleur, when her sister plans to take a contract job
on a cruise-liner. Once Mariella arrives in Zuran, she seeks out Sheikh Xavier Al Agir, mistakenly
assuming that he is the man who impregnated her sister and then abandoned her and his child.
Similarly, Xavier, believes that Mariella is Fleur's mother, his cousin's former lover,
and a woman of loose morals.
One night, Mariella finds herself stranded by a sandstorm at Xavier's desert home. Passion
soon takes over, making it a night she'll never forget. Later, when her sister Tanya arrives
in Zuran, Mariella finds herself deeply yearning for a child of her own. Shrewdly, she plans to spend
one more night with the Sheikh....if only to conceive his baby.
